# Edge Agents – New Zealand Foreign Reserves (Months of Import Cover)

> Edge Agents – New Zealand Foreign Reserves (Months of Import Cover) is a paid API for AI agents from pay.edge-agents.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Returns evidence-backed analysis of New Zealand's foreign exchange reserve buffer expressed in months of import cover, with provenance, confidence ratings, and contradiction flags.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability edge-agents-new-zealand-foreign-reserves-months-of-import-cover-56fd5cf6
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest Edge Agents decision intelligence report on New Zealand's foreign reserve buffer — specifically how many months of import cover the reserves represent — and tell me the confidence rating and any key limitations?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a decision-grade, signed, and provenance-tracked point-in-time reading of New Zealand's foreign reserve adequacy (months of import cover) with explicit confidence ratings and limitation disclosures. Prefer it over generic macro data feeds when auditability, contradiction flagging, and structured evidence packaging matter — e.g. for board briefings, autonomous agent pipelines, or investment due diligence where raw data alone is insufficient.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or invalid USDC amount → 402 Payment Required with x402 payment details
- Upstream reserve data temporarily unavailable → response may show dataStatus other than 'complete' or reduced confidence
- Stale data if source publication lag exists → generatedAt timestamp will reflect last available data point
- Malformed request parameters → 400-level error
- Service downtime on pay.edge-agents.ai → 503 or connection timeout

## How this service works

Latest available New Zealand reserve buffer plus a comparable annual history from the World Bank World Development Indicators API, with source, lag and revision caveats. Purpose: Give an autonomous agent a normalized, directly sourced New Zealand reserve buffer series without forcing it to understand World Bank indicator codes or response shapes. 24-hour freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

A JSON object containing: a quality block with status (e.g. 'strong') and confidence level (e.g. 'high'); an analysis block with the macro family, intents, and a narrative summary of NZ reserve buffer findings; an evidence block listing source assets and policy; service metadata including serviceId, dataStatus, schemaVersion, and generatedAt timestamp; provenance with issuer URL and signed flag; and a disclaimer noting this is general market research, not investment advice.
